About Paxos

Today’s financial infrastructure is archaic, expensive, inefficient and risky — supporting a system that leaves out more people than it lets in. So we’re rebuilding it.

We’re on a mission to open the world’s financial system to everyone by enabling the instant movement of any asset, any time, in a trustworthy way. For over a decade, we’ve built blockchain infrastructure that tokenizes, custodies, trades and settles assets for the world's leading financial institutions, like PayPal, Venmo, Mastercard, Interactive Brokers and Charles Schwab.

About the team

You'll be the sole member of our Corporate Development function, working side by side with the executive team on Paxos's fundraising and inorganic growth. You'll partner with executive and product leadership to develop investment theses, and work with teams across the company to make sure deals deliver after they close.

About the role

The Corporate Development Lead serves as the driver of Paxos's inorganic growth strategy, identifying, structuring, and executing acquisitions, and owning process management for our fundraising efforts as we scale. You will own the full M&A lifecycle. You will also support the CEO and CFO on end-to-end fundraise processes, helping tell the Paxos story to the right capital partners at the right time.

What you’ll do

Own the M&A process end-to-end:

Develop Investment and M&A theses by researching and monitoring emerging trends and disruptive companies and deeply understanding Paxos product strategy and overall priorities
